Whitewater Safety & Rescue Class for Teens

Whitewater Rescue & Safety For Teens

A two and a half day course designed for kids age 12-18, this is a 20 hour class with a half day of classroom instruction followed by two days developing and practicing skills on the river. While the initial emphasis fun on the river, the kids will learn about reading water, recognizing and avoiding hazards, swimming rapids, flipping boats, helping swimmers and much more.  We  progress from a solid foundation of rescue skills and practice into rescue scenarios on the river. The class is challenging, fun and tailored to the student’s needs. A manual, test, patch, I.D. card, and certification are included.

Equipment
